Answer:
1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom
Explanation:
Alpha particles are positive charge particles and they are bounced back by the nucleus because nucleus is also same size
Now in present experiment Rutherford found that very few alpha particles are bounced back along same path which shows that very small region inside the nucleus is having positive charge and rest part of the atom is empty.
Now if we found that half of the alpha particles are bounced back then it shows that size of the nucleus is very large now as compare to previous one because only nucleus can bounce back the alpha particles
so correct answer will be
1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom
From reliable sources in the internet, the half-live of carbon-14 is given to be 5,730 years. In a span of 10,000 to 12,000 years, there are almost or little more than 2 half-lives. Thus, there should be
A(t) = A(0)(1/2)^t
where t is the number of half-lives, in this case 2. Thus, only about 1/4 of the original amount will be left.
The answer is A, it breaks down and releases thermal energy.
Explanation:
Mass of the astronaut, m₁ = 170 kg
Speed of astronaut, v₁ = 2.25 m/s
mass of space capsule, m₂ = 2600 kg
Let v₂ is the speed of the space capsule. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :
initial momentum = final momentum
Since, initial momentum is zero. So,
So, the change in speed of the space capsule is 0.17 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
